The Army psychiatrist accused of killing 13 people last week at Fort Hood, Tex., did not formally seek to be discharged as a conscientious objector or for any other reason, an Army official said, despite claims by one of his relatives that he had sought to leave the service.

It’s not that difficult for an Officer to leave the military.
So much for the family BS called in so quickly to Fox News.
It's a piece of cake. I submitted my resignation, and was a civilian within two months. Of course, I had already fulfilled my service commitment...four years prior.
Hasan owed the government at least four years, as taxpayers paid for his training. In his case, it would not have been enough to buy his way out by paying the Army back for his education.
What this piece of info says is that this wasn't just some guy caught between a rock and a hard place who "cracked" (not that most of us ever thought that it was). This was, beyond a doubt, a planned, cold-blooded, murderous assault.
Yet not unlike a leftist. bitch about it ,but do nothing.
I suspected as much.
That one cousin of Hasan’s is responsible for practically all the misinformation in the media. That he got a lawyer to get him out of the service, that he was constantly harassed by his fellow soldiers and that he was a “Good American”.
...and of course he found a very willing and sympathetic ear from Shep Smith!
The only problem with this is that, given the Army’s inability to even recognize a terrorist in its midst, they might not want anyone to think he formally applied for removal and they did nothing.
General Casey’s actions following the attack make it hard to trust anything that comes from the top right now.
Since the killer’s medical schooling was paid for by the military he may not have fulfilled his obligation yet.
No, this azzhat enjoyed swaggering around intimidating and bullying people with his jihad BS.

If Casey's so hung up on "diversity", it can only mean that the end of "don't ask, don't tell" is nigh.
What I want to know is, what the U.S. Military going to do to prevent further atrocities perpetuated against innocents? Are they going to ban the satanic cult known as Islam from the military?
I won’t hold my breath.
Called into Shepherd Smith at Fox — they know a sympathizer when they see one.
And it just keeps leaking out.
Oh they recognized him. But they did nothing.
PC is killing us.
Resign your commission and within 60 days your bonafide civilian, right?
He hadn’t received his kill orders from Allah yet.
If he had sought a discharge, he wouldn’t of been in the position to do what he did.
Remember, we were told how *patient* terrorists can be.
My first thought also. I just wonder how long he had this planned. Maybe longer than many people think.
I’m really concerned about the possibility of other *sleepers* out there.
Iran has publicly stated they have 40,000 agents in this country just in case we attack them.
Its like the cousin already had the story handy???
Pray for America’s Veterans
Leave the military?
Why would this POS want to “leave the military?”
He probably wouldn’t have been able to murder 13 on an ARMY base in America if he had left the military...and we’ve got more than a THOUSAND other muzzies in American uniform.
Happy Veterans Day, Vets!
Semper Fi,

Apparently, their allegiance to Allah, the moon rock godlette of blood and stealthy murder, overrode their oath...
One forgotten fine officer who has remained unnamed and his reasoning unexplored is the commander who gave Hasan a bad Officer Efficiency Report (OER). At least it was reported in the initial days that he had received an adverse OER.
That man defied Gen Casey’s political correctness. I’m interested in whether he’s still in the Army, whether he suffered repercussions, and where exactly he downgraded Hasan on that form. I want to know where he blocked him (Middle of the pack or below) and the words used and boxes checked on the rest of the OER.
For any other officer, absent political correctness, such an OER meant that this commander was putting paper in Hasan’s file that would guarantee he eventually would be put out of service and go no higher in rank. (Hasan owed the Army a number of years yet due to all the free education. Despite that, this commander voted for Hasan to be gone.)
Why have we heard nothing about this commander?
Indeed Barney Frank stated today that the repeal of DA - DT will be included in the next military spending bill for 2010
| The GAO reports that 425 servicemen and women made applications for Conscientious Objector status from 2002 to 2006, many as a result of the War on Terror. Hasan WOULD have been required to pay back his training costs to the Army. He could have applied for the Guard or Army Reserve to remain stateside. BUT he could have gotten out if he truly wanted to. It does not give this sack of sh!t ANY cover to kill 13 American soldiers so he wouldn't have to participate in the killing of his “fellow” Muslims. |
I saw that headline on Drudge today. Couldn't bear to read the article, not on Veterans' Day.
It is if you have a service commitment, which Hasan may have had due to the Army providing him with an education.
He also PCSd (changed bases from Walter Reed to Ft Hood) and took a promotion to Major. I dont know about the Army, but in the Air Force, that got me a three year ADSC (Active Duty Service Commitment).
No. Otherwise, docs would be bailing left and right.
Thanks for clarifying the source. I had heard all three, although the last was kinda hard to swallow.

“What this piece of info says is that this wasn’t just some guy caught between a rock and a hard place who “cracked” (not that most of us ever thought that it was). This was, beyond a doubt, a planned, cold-blooded, murderous assault.”
Spot F’n on!
Yes it did seem like it. I'm also disturbed about how the cousin said that Hasan internalized the trauma that his patients had endured. BS.This man hated infidels.
True. But I assume that the Army is like the Marine Corps, you refuse a promotion and you will NOT be sent to combat - especially if you are an officer, because your thought processes will be suspect.
He didn’t want out of the Army. He was making too much money and he was able to do what he wanted. As soon as the military wanted him to “earn” that paycheck in a combat zone, he (just like MOST conscientious objectors) realize that they can’t fulfill their oath. None them come to this realization BEFORE the military pays them for 3+ years and trains them in a good paying career, no only AFTER they get orders do they realize they cannot uphold their oath!
BS flag on this one!
In other times, I’d assume that the FBI was following and investigating the cousin. In these times ... ?
I don’t care about “don’t ask, don’t tell”. Gay soldiers aren’t itching to shoot you or throw a grenade at you. All that matters is one’s loyalty and reliability, as far as the service goes. I don’t like gay behavior any more than you do but it does not compare to the menace of radicalized Muslims in the service.
I’m thinking contributions to some jihadi outfits here and there.
After all, he is a muslim first.
I really am beyond furious.
It is when the army shells out $100K+ in education benefits and that officer is still contractually obligated to serve. Only nonob officers may resign their commissions.
He wasn't enlisted. He was an obligated officer. The Army payed for his medical school (possibly his undergrad as well), and as a result, he had a service obligation - probably a 7x2 or 7x3 contract.
Just another lie to the ifidels by the Islamofasist.
No surprise.
Sitting stateside playing mind games with our troops’ mental health must have been so fulfilling that he regretted interrupting his prostelytizing for Islam, and anti-war, anti-American, treasonous diatribes during counseling sessions. And, then there were his connections with this administration and their shared love of Islam and Baal-lah. What more could the taxpayers expect for their dime? Sarcasm apparent.
Why would he want to leave the military? He was a mooslim plant with the intent of disrupting and then killing as many loyal Americans as he could. The idiot pressed our brave soldiers suffering from PTSD with mooslim garbage. He had a professional position that allowed his to have a at least one-up position in which he dominated them. That was unethical and unprofessional. He practiced with his guns at the range in anticipation so that he could kill many of them. He realized the PC military would tolerate all of his treasonous bullsh**. People should be investigated for allowing this moron in the military (and paying for his education)It unfortunate that someone didn’t frag this bastard. What a mooslim loser. I can only hope that they waterboard his dumb a** until he squacks and then give him some hot lead in the cranium. TRAITOR!
I heard it reported on Fox this evening that in Hasan’s apartment were medications he had prescribed for himself, including ones for HIV. He may have been gay AND a terrorist.
